Additional Entry Requirements

For effective learning, enrol for subjects at a level that best matches your ability, i.e., you have passed each subject at its previous level, especially for Mathematics and Science.

If you are applying for a Science subject, you must have

  • Passed the subject at the previous level; or 

  • Sat for the subject at the same level applied for

 

Note:

  • If you do not meet the entry requirement for the subject level of choice, please take the respective Pre-Course Assessment (PCA) in English, Mathematics or Science. The computerised PCA is available at the registration centres. Please contact the Customer Service Hotline at 1800-2222 111 to arrange an appointment.       
  • A $10 administrative fee is payable for each attempt of the PCA. You may repeat the PCA for the same subject after a 2-week interval. Our staff at the registration centres will help to advise you on the most suitable level to register.
  • Apply for each subject only once. If you have signed up for the same subject at different levels, your enrolment at the lower level will be cancelled with no refund of fees.
